Changes in relative cerebral blood volume 1 month after radiation-temozolomide therapy can help predict overall survival in patients with glioblastoma.

• To evaluate perfusion parameter changes in patients with glioblastoma multiforme by comparing the perfusion magnetic resonance (MR) imaging measurements obtained before combined radiation and temozolomide therapy (RT-TMZ) with the follow-up MR imaging measurements obtained 1 month after completion of this treatment.
